Information displayed will continue to be updated for this metric as students are found to meet the criteria in the metric definition. Since the timeframe for data collection to construct this metric within this cohort view is still open, the data displayed for these metrics will continue to be updated.
This metric is aligned to the original SCFF definition. However, it will not align to the 2021-22 SCFF definition where the 12 or more units must be earned in the district in the selected year prior to transfer
Only students with valid social security numbers can be tracked
All colleges where a student is enrolled in the selected year prior to transfer will receive credit for that transfer
If a student shows up as a transfer student in two different transfer categories (i.e., CSU or UC and out of state) then that student is counted in both categories
